My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 634

Juju's eyes were swollen as she had been crying all night out of worry. Eudora consoled her hurriedly, "Mommy is fine now!"

The moment she looked up, she met Amos' worried glance.

If Eudora had seen such a gaze from him the day before, she would probably be touched by it. However, she had just managed to escape from his abduction earlier that day. At that moment, his gaze felt like a mockery to her.

Eudora said coldly with a frown on her face.

"Hodge, since when did we allow any irrelevant person enter the Holt Manor? Please send President Granger off this instant!"

Hodge was stunned. He didn't quite understand what Eudora meant. Even though both of them seemed calm and respectful to each other, Hodge had been around and about. He could clearly notice the hidden flow of affection between them.

So, why did Miss Eudora's behavior change all of a sudden?

"What are you waiting for?" Eudora

probed. Hodge gathered his

thoughts hurriedly and went over to Amos.

"I'm sorry, President Granger. Allow me to send you to the gate."

Amos' gaze fell on Eudora's red wrist, and he felt his chest tightening. Juju was crying when she called him that morning, saying that Eudora had gone missing.

He was so anxious that he immediately hurried to the manor, but he couldn't see Eudora around. Therefore, he planned to bring Juju back first and then get his men to replace her. However, his men heard that Eudora was back just as they stepped out of the gate.

Hence, he immediately went to the Holt Manor with Juju.

However... what happened to her wrists? It was obvious that she had been tied up.

Amos was suspicious, but he knew that Eudora wouldn't tell him anything, so he could only leave quietly.

After Amos left, Eudora grabbed Juju's hand and let out a bitter laugh.

Amos immediately called Clint once he was out of the Holt Manor.

"Investigate Eudora's whereabouts and the people she met with last night."

Clint was taken aback, "Did something happen to Miss George? I'll get to it right away!"

A moment later, in Amos' office, Clint handed two staff cards over to him, "I found that these two men had made contact with Miss George. They were our staff, which is rather strange." Amos' eyes glowered, "Get them here now!"

Clint paused, "I'm afraid that that's not possible. Both of them resigned a few days ago."

How could there be such a coincidence? Amos doubted there were such coincidences in the world.

"Continue your investigation. Find out who these two people have been in contact with recently. If you catch them, make sure you teach them a lesson well!"

How dare they try to lay their hands on his woman! They must be looking for death!

Clint hadn't seen that side of Amos for a long time. He felt a chill on his nape, but at the same time, he was excited about what would happen next. Things would always be interesting when Amos went berserk! At this moment, Amos spoke again.

"By the way, replace a good doctor and send him to the Holt residence."

Clint raised his eyebrows and said, "I'll call Doctor Leon then. He has been working on a seminar in Greene City recently. He should be able to free some time."

"Not him!" Amos exclaimed, "A local doctor should suffice. Wait till the Holt residence has called for a doctor before you instruct that doctor to go over. Do not let anyone replace out about this." Clint was speechless.

Must he conceal his care for that particular patient that much? Who would know if he did that?

However, sensing Amos' determination, Clint decided to keep quiet and he just did as he was told.

Eudora took a nap that afternoon. In a daze, she woke up to a chilly sensation on her arm.

She opened her eyes wearily and saw an unfamiliar female doctor half- squatting beside the bed and applying medicine to her arm.

The female doctor smiled when she noticed her gaze, "You're awake, Miss George. This medicine won't hurt that much, so please don't move."

Hodge hurriedly explained from behind, "I noticed that you were injured, Miss Eudora. So, I called the doctor."

It was the first time Eudora had seen this particular doctor. However, she quickly explained their regular family doctor was busy, so she was assigned to replace him instead.

Eudora didn't say anything further and allowed her to dress her wound.

She turned her head and gazed at Juju sitting next to her once the doctor and Hodge left the room.

Juju was also staring at her anxiously, "Mommy, I'm sorry. I've failed to protect you again..."

Eudora shook her head and recalled the two men lying about Juju falling into the pool. She asked Juju swiftly, "Nothing bad happened to you, right?"

"No!" Juju shook her head.

Eudora was still worried. However, in order to avoid a tragedy from happening in the future, she reminded Juju once again.

"Juju, you must be more vigilant in the future. Don't trust other people easily when you go outside next time, including those whom you are familiar with, except for Mommy, okay?"

Juju frowned her small eyebrows, "Including Daddy?"

Eudora's heart ached. She wanted her to be on guard, but Juju was still so young, how could she ask her to be wary of her own father?

Eudora said hesitantly after heaving a deep breath.

"Daddy is fine, but apart from him, you mustn't trust others easily, okay?"

"What about Uncle Wesley?"

"Nope!"

Juju pouted, "Mommy, you shouldn't think that way. Uncle Wesley treats me and Sugar Bun very well. Besides, when you and Daddy were fighting with each other before, it was Uncle Wesley who also told me that you must have had your own difficulties. He told me not to blame you, Mommy!"

A trace of guilt flashed across Eudora's heart, "Then, Uncle Wesley is fine, but no one else!"

Juju laughed wryly and said, "There won't be anyone else. Sugar Bun and I are always at home. Apart from Daddy, Uncle Wesley will take care of us. Daddy said that Uncle Wesley is a very careful person, so he's at ease whenever he takes care of us."

At this moment, a brief thought flashed through her mind. It was important, but she couldn't seem to catch it in time.

She forced herself to recall that thought but to no avail. Eudora could only give up.

Both the mother and daughter snuggled with each other and fell asleep soundly that night.

Eudora rested at home for two days. On the third day, she finally composed herself and went to work.

As soon as she arrived at the entrance, she saw several colleagues from several departments greeting at the door. Leslie said with a smile, "Miss George, everyone knew that you were not feeling well, so they came to welcome you."

Eudora followed Leslie's gaze and saw that Samuel was also standing among the crowd. Eudora smiled at him, and Samuel immediately turned his head away awkwardly.

"I only came to see whether everyone is here. After all, no one should be late to work!"

Leslie rolled his eyes at him viciously, "You are so weird! You obviously came to welcome her. There's no need to say that you're doing your duty to ensure everyone is present for work. How hypocritical!" "Leslie, who are you calling hypocritical?!"

Both of them began to bicker again, and Eudora had to stop them in a hurry, "Uncle Chilton, Uncle Clarke, I understand your thoughtfulness. I'm grateful for both of you. Since I have not been in office for the past few days, let's head upstairs so that I could catch up on the latest updates."

They finally ended their argument and went upstairs. The moment the three of them entered Eudora's office, they saw the head of the project management department rushing in.

"Miss Eudora, there's an urgent matter. There's an issue with the real estate project that we had just taken over! The client company is making things difficult for us. But this issue wasn't from our side!" Eudora was dumbfounded, "Which company is it?" "It's the TEM Company!"
